1A-6A Rankings Now Live

After about 45 hours of going through brackets, checking trackwrestling, and creating state rankings worksheets, the 1A-6A Rankings are now available on Wrestle Virginia (wrestlevirginia.proboards.com). I have not added freshman, and all wrestlers are ranked at the weight they competed at this past season, because predicting next seasons weights are impossible.

These rankings are basically predictions based on 2013 finishes in postseason tournaments (Districts, Regions, States) with all seniors removed from the equation.

Join the community, check it out and let me know what you think. Also follow us on twitter @WrestleVirginia for updates on wrestling in the state of Virginia.

Thanks! But, none of the rankings would be possible without user input. The more user input, the better these rankings will be. So far the input I have received has been amazing. Keep up the good work wrestling world.

I'm going to take a few days off from research, 45 hours on individual rankings in one week, on top of my regular job took it out of me. In a day or two I will get back to work on team rankings. Hope to have them by sometime next week. Thanks for checking out the site!

When I first began this project, a 1-8 ranking was what I had in mind, I quickly found that this would be more difficult than you think. There are some sets of rankings that could not fill 8 spots last year when there were just 3 classifications, now there are 6 classifications so the amount of wrestlers per weight per classification are spread even thinner.

Now, I am still hoping to get a set of rankings with 8-10 names per weight, per classification, with 9 and 10 being honorable mentions. This may not happen until next school year begins and we figure out how freshmen and transfers will impact teams. Thanks for visiting the site and rankings 1-8 will be on the way at some point.
